One of the best romantic comedies of the 1990s, this box-office hit cemented writer-director Cameron Crowe's reputation as "the voice of a generation." Crowe could probably do without that label, but he's definitely in sync with the times with this savvy story about a sports agent (Tom Cruise) whose fall from grace motivates his quest for professional recovery, and the slow-dawning realization that he needs the love and respect of the single mom (Renée Zellweger in her breakthrough role) who has supported him through the worst of times. This is one of Cruise's best, most underrated performances, and in an Oscar-winning role, Cuba Gooding Jr. plays the football star who remains Jerry Maguire's only loyal client on a hard road to redemption and personal growth. If that sounds touchy-feely, it is only because Crowe has combined sharp entertainment with a depth of character that is rarely found in mainstream comedy. --Jeff Shannon

Something for Everyone.......2007-06-27

Hey, we all know JERRY MAGUIRE was a box office hit that put sultry Renee Zellweger on the superstar map and birthed one of the most famous lines in all of cinema. I've seen this little gem upteen times, enjoyed it even more with each viewing, and scratch my itchy head in amazement that I have yet to review it. Suffice it to say the review begins now. . .

Let's bypass the plot and the Big Three (Renee, Tom, Cuba); for me this movie ultimately succeeds by the fantastic performances of several of its second tier players. Jay Mohr is the guy you love to hate as Jerry's backstabbing former boss, Bob Sugar; Bonnie Hunt is the manhater with a heart of pure gold as Renee's sis Laurel. But Regina King tops them all as Marcee, loving and devoted wife of unappreciated and underpaid Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rod Tidwell. King is a vivacious, voluptuous goddess who absolutely steals every scene she's in, and while she steals it she exudes steamy sensuality. Rod Tidwell is one lucky dude.

So with the strength of its cast and its delightful plot, JERRY MAGUIRE has something for everyone. The Tom and Renee romance pleases the chicks, while the guys get off on the sports drama. Furthermore, sports enthusiasts will thoroughly enjoy all the cameos made by sports celebrities and broadcasters. Bottom line: If you haven't seen JERRY MAGUIRE, by all means see JERRY MAGUIRE. Show me the DVD player.

One of the great film comedies of the 1990's.......2007-05-23

Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) is a sports agent who has an epiphany one day about having "less clients, less money". This soon leads to him getting fired from his agency and he his down to one demanding football-playing client Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and a secretary Dorothy Boyd (Rene Zellweger) who takes the plunge and comes with him.

Jerry Maguire is a great romantic comedy filled with warmth and humour and characters you really care about. Underappreciated at time of release this is actually one of the great film comedies of the 1990's.

Jerry Maguire is perfectly cast. Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding Jr are simply brilliant and their interplay provides the real highlights of the film - making the most of a brilliant script. The film lags a little bit in the second half and Cruise and Zellweger's romance is not entirely convincing but this is still great compared to most comedies these days.

Sadly, the commentary included on the DVD with the director and his three leads is a waste of time. It is a self-indulgent, back-slapping session of the very worst kind with insights on the level of "I loved that scene", "you were great in the scene", "awesome", etc, etc. Very disapointing as I was interested in gaining some insights on the making of this great film. Hopefully in a few year's time Crowe will produce a proper commentary that befits the film.

The DVD does include a pretend Reebok commercial that is worth seeing with Cuba, but otherwise you could save your money and just buy the one-disc edition.

NOT JUST A CHIC FLICK!.......2007-03-25

This is a very good film and does not deserve the "chic flick" label it has been given(Even though it has one of the all time sappy lines in it "you had me at hello"....hoo boy)! I still dig the movie alot! One to watch again and again. The DVD is a good transfer.

Fantastico Film.......2007-03-22

Esta pelicula es espectacular la he visto infinidad de veces y nunca me canso de verla y creo que nunca me cansare, es una pelicula con un hermoso mensaje de lucha, dignidad y humildad ademas de la bella historia de amor. Jamas olvidare la frase "You Complet Me" tu me complementas es hermosa, no dejen de tener esta pelicula una de las mejores de Tom Cruise.

This stinker won awards?.......2007-03-22

Is the academy deaf and blind? Two of the most un-sexy actors, Tom "Plastic" Cruise and Renee (scrunch-face) Whatzinger. Ya gotta be kidding me. Not only were the adult actors horrible, {with the possible exception of Cuba Gooding} the lispy litte buzz cut with glasses was too cutsey for words, oh, wait I thought of a word-nauseating. This whole story was contrived and thanks to the wooden acting of the main characters I didn't care about either of them. Enjoy!

Listen to one of the masters of the craft. Excellent and worth it.

Get Some Respect NOW! .......2007-03-14

My wife gave me no respect, not even my kids, so I took it upon myself to get this video collection of Rodney's shows, clips, etc. VERY FUNNY! The only thing that I did not think was top-notch was the grainy and out of focus routine in Las Vegas - it could have had better sound and visual acuity, but hey, after watching this, I got some respect!!

I remember going to Rodney's nightclub in NYC (Dangerfields') back in the early 80's when he was making a comeback of sorts. My wife and I went in and gave the Doorman $5 for a better seat - we were seated right in front of the stage. So, after one impersonator and a torch singer did their acts, Rodney comes up on the stage and begins to pummel the crowd with one no respect joke after the other - he had all of us rolling! Anyhow, half-way through his act he asked the audience if anyone out there had any questions for him. Being seated right in front of him, it was not that difficult to get his attention, so he pointed to me and said "Yes young man, what is your question?"

I responded with "When does the comedian come on?" Well, he reacted to that question threatening my life by the hands of his friend Vinnie Boombatz - and from that point on in the show he kept picking on me and my wife for the rest of the show. After the show, he came over to me and apologized, but he also said that he never had anyone ask that question before of him and thought I had a pretty good line there!

Well, that's my story of giving Rodney No Respect! But if you purchase this video, that's what you'll get!

Good, but..........2007-01-03

...hopefully there will be a better one released in the future. As previous reviewers have mentioned, this box set primarily focuses on Rodney's `80s TV and HBO specials (as opposed to his standup routine). The only things that save these often embarrassing shows are the bits that Rodney does with Sam Kinison and Rosanne Barr--but even then just barely. And it's disappointing not to see more of his Tonight Show appearances or even a single appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show, as these were some of Rodney's truly magical moments.

Perhaps one day there will be a compilation of Rodney's better standup moments released on DVD. Until that time, we will have to settle for this flawed box set, which only scratches the surface of his comedic genius.

"I Get No Respect. I Could Always Tell That My Parents Hated Me. My Bath Toys Were a Toaster and a Radio." .......2006-06-10

Rodney is great. This box set was put together perfectly. I spent a whole Sunday (literally 20 hrs) watching these DVD's. Then I spent the following weeks watching them over and over again with friends and family. I have yet to find one person who doesn't like Rodney's stand-up or skits.

Seriously, about 95% of the footage in this compilation is gut busting comedy at its best.

WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE.......2006-06-02

This collection is not just the best of Rodney; it's the best of comedy as well.

It's odd, the most recent footage is from 1989 (that's 17 years ago) and this collection has just becoming available. This shows how truly ahead of his time Rodney was. Usually comedy becomes outdated in matter of years, but somehow Rodney has stayed fresh.

I am too young to even remember Rodney on live television. However, his works still gets me rolling.

Nasty Habits.......2007-03-20

I agree that the quality is terrible: transferred from an old videotape, no doubt. Regardless, this film is HILARIOUS!!! After a while, I didn't notice the poor quality, and just roared with laughter at the antics of these connivers. Sandy Dennis's "John Dean" steals the show, and Melina Mercouri's take as "Henry Kissinger" is nothing short of brilliant - and what a treat to see the husbands (Rip Torn, Eli Wallach, Jerry Stiller) also in the film with their wives (Geraldine Page, Anne Jackson and Anne Meara, respectively). Hopefully, the studio will process a new DVD that is worthy of this film, which is really funny.

Forgotten Glenda Jackson Film Worth Seeing.......2004-05-16

Glenda Jackson, Sandy Dennis and Geraldine Page are all excellent in this little seen film from the 70's. The script and the acting are very good. The main problem is that this DVD transfer is terrible. Poor picture and sound. If you've never seen the film, I recommend it. If you have seen it, skip this DVD and hope they come out with a better quality DVD in the future.

Nuns on the take.......2003-07-08

Imagine a convent as Watergate and Glenda Jackson as Richard Nixon. Nasty Habits is a parody of Watergate that Lampoons everyone from Sandy Dennis as the John Dean character to Melina Mecouri as Henry Kissenger. It has however been called a "one line movie" (You won't have Alexandra to kick around anymore). But I think you have to appreciate it for what it is, a thinly disguised political lampoon of a time that wasn't that funny. I highly recommend it if you're a democrat....
